Iran's military says it has, once again, closed the straight-of-four moves to all maritime
traffic.
“Officials say that's because the U.S. has failed to stop Israel's bombing campaign in”
Lebanon, which is a requirement in the preliminary agreement signed by President Trump to end the war. Israeli strike Saturday killed at least 16 people and PR's carry con has more. Iran cited Israel's ongoing killing and displacement in Lebanon as one reason for closing the vital straight, along with Israel's refusal to withdraw from Lebanon, where it is fighting
Iranian-backed Hezbollah militants. Israel says it is defending itself. Hezbollah says Israel is trying to sabotage the fragile preliminary peace pack between the U.S. and Iran, which stipulates that hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon must cease.
The U.S. central command military, however, says the straight is open and says more than 50 ships have passed through on Saturday. Carry con and PR news, Tel Aviv. Ukraine's president, Vladimir Zelensky, says Ukrainian made long-range drones, have struck a Russian oil refining facility in Siberia.
“It's Ukraine's latest attack on Russia's oil infrastructure, which is a pillar of the”
Russian economy. And PR's tyrannica kisses as our reports. The regional governor of the Southeastern City of Zapoteja says Russian glide bombs hit apartment buildings there, killing and injuring civilians. Meanwhile, in his evening video address, Zelensky said Ukrainian defense tech companies
are quickly modernizing drones to strike even deeper into Russia. He said the latest strikes had a Russian oil refinery in western Siberia that's 2,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian border about 1,200 miles. He added that these strikes on Russia's oil infrastructure are a fair response to frequent Russian strikes on Ukrainian cities.
Joannic Hiccuses and PR news, Kyiv. The Justice Department released a memo this week that quietly calls into question, long-standing civil rights protections for Americans with disabilities. PR's Corey Turner has the latest. For decades, the courts and Republican and Democratic administrations alike have agreed
“when it comes to serving Americans with disabilities, states have to provide support in home”
or in the communities where they live. Institutionalization should be a last resort. But a new Justice Department memo argues there is no integration mandate forcing states to provide these local targeted services. Pushback from the disability community was swift.
Advocates warn the memo could bring a return to what was once common practice, de facto segregation of Americans with disabilities in nursing homes and large institutions. The Justice Department did not respond to an NPR request for comment. Corey Turner and PR news. And your listening to NPR news.
